When you make a decision to use a biodiesel blend in your vehicles and machinery that run on gasoline or regular diesel fuels such as Diesel No. 1 or 2, you are being proactive about the environment. You are being even more proactive if you use a cleaning agent such as Fuelboost to your blend.
First of all using biodiesel blends help reduce the unburned hydrocarbons that are often the result of using straight diesel. Smog is created form unburned hydrocarbons. This creates the brown gas you see called NOX. If you also add a fuel booster (like Fuel Boost) that is designed to decarbonizes engines you will drastically cut the amount of unburned particle matter that you discharge into the atmosphere.
Aside from the particulates and NOX, the use of biodiesel can help cut emissions of sulfur oxides by as much as 8%. The overall emissions of methane can be cut almost 3% all just by using biodiesel blends. These might seem like small amounts but it matters a lot in terms of the big picture or even if you just happen to be operating a fleet of large vehicles such as trucks or cruise ships. When it comes to making an initial gesture towards halting global warming, using an additive like Fuel Boost is definitely a start towards optimizing those fuels so that you get the most of them both in terms of performance and haulage.
If you are running a large operation that involves the operation of a lot of farm machinery you are reducing your carbon footprint by cutting your fuel with biodiesel and even more by adding a designer fuel boost blend.
When you add a biodiesel blend to your engine you are reducing your carbon footprint. In fact you are giving back more energy to the environment. Lifecycle studies about the use of biodiesel show that for every unit of fossil energy it takes to manufacture fossil fuel, 3.2 units of energy are gained. This kind of lifecycle study would take into account the planting and harvesting of the soy or canola as well as its transportation, production and distribution to the end user.
The overall he overall lifecycle production of wastewater from biodiesel is 79.0% lower than overall production of wastewater from diesel. To put it another way, petroleum diesel generates roughly five times as much wastewater flow than biodiesel. This means that you will be polluting the ground and oceans less if you use biodiesel. To keep these diesel machines running smoothly and reliably so that you don't have to rely on the "wrong " kinds of polluting fuels in various weather conditions you should also use Fuel Boost.
Scientific research confirms that biodiesel exhaust is less harmful to humans then petroleum-based fuel because it contains NO aromatic compounds like sculpture. The purer the biodiesel the less likely it is to create the cancer causing compounds polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) and nitrated PAH compounds. PAH and nPAH compounds cause cancer. The best way to keep your vegetable based fuels running clean is to use something like Fuel Boost which helps reduce sulfur emissions.
